Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 2002-2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD

Part Number: RS55282

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages CrossTun technology to deliver a sophisticated twin-tube ride for your Dodge Ram 1500. Engineered for 4WD models at stock height, these shocks utilize a unique valving system that transitions seamlessly from smooth highway cruising to controlled off-road damping. By minimizing internal aeration and maximizing fluid capacity, the RS5000X ensures consistent performance and durability under heavy-duty cycles.

Features

• CrossTun Technology: A progressive rebound and compression disc design provides custom-tuned damping to ensure a balanced ride on varied terrain.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen charging provides reduced foaming and aeration to ensure consistent damping force during rapid cycling.
• 2.25-inch Body: An increased fluid capacity housing provides better heat dissipation to ensure long-term durability and fade resistance.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure seal longevity against road debris.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Dodge Ram 1500?
No, these shocks are configured for 0-inches of lift and are designed to replace factory-length dampers. They do not provide lift on their own.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X over a standard shock?
The RS5000X features Rancho’s CrossTun technology and a larger 2.25-inch body, which provides better cooling and more precise valving than most entry-level replacement shocks.

Is the protective boot required for installation?
Yes, it is highly recommended to install the included boots to protect the shock rod from pitting and debris, which extends the life of the internal seals.
